837.0. "Teletubbies" by WOTVAX::claire.lzo.dec.com::CarterAnd (Dreamin' is free...) Wed Apr 16 1997 14:05

If you're the sort of person who can always follow the likes of "The
X-Files" and "Twin Peaks", try setting your video to 10am on a weekday on 
BBC2 and take a look at the children's programme that appears to have 
replaced "Playdays".

Its basically 4 characters who have different shaped aerials on their
heads, and TV's for tummies, who can't quite speak English, who live in a 
grassy dome surrounded by wild rabbits, who are instructed in a "The 
Prisoner" sort of way by a number of shower heads (that's shower as in 
bathroom), and every so often run away from a wind turbine.

Includes vocalisations by Eric Sykes and Toyah Wilcox.

Can I have a pint of whatever the creator was drinking please :-)

Andy (er, not that I watch this of course)

        Great programme (so my kids tell me). You don't need to set the 
        video, there's an omnibus edition at the weekend, Sunday morning 
        7:15 I think.

    I watched this the other week and quite enjoyed it even though I hadn't
    got a clue as to what was going on. An omnibus may be a little too much
    for most adults.
